AA meetings

[Chuffy]

Yes, absolutely. I drink too much to the extent that it worries me.

I won't ask 'how much' because if you say it's too much, then it probably is.

Oh, ok. I've only ever been to one AA meeting, and it was in a shitty place, but everything I've said thus far is true.

Ok, I'm taking this all at face value, because I want to believe you. If I thought that you were just yanking everyone's chain again then I'd just give up.

And being even more honest... a couple of the older alcoholic ladies rushed up to me afterwards (after my 'hello my name is abitrary' bit) and told me about an even better place for meetings... in a church!

We are all weak.

In a church or at a church? Somehow the idea of a drunken sinner in a church seeking redemption makes absolute sense, but at the same time is it ever anything more than a great sub-genre of popular music, inhabited by Snaggletooth MacGowan and Leonard Cohen et al? I suspect that the reality is grimier, nastier and reeking of desperation and regret.

You sound more like a drunk than an alcoholic (like I know you...) and that's something that I hovered close to some years back. Life wasn't great, thanks to a dying relationship and the booze filled a void. Also, I liked it and I enjoyed being drunk. Happily, in recent years I haven't felt the same need. It might not be that simple, but for me the drinking was a symptom rather than the disease itself.

Exactly.

Sometimes I wish the country would become muslim, just so we wouldn't have the guessing game of booze.

Just like the internet, and mobile phones. They should all go.

joe!

Heh. I used to live in Saudi (I was young and Dad needed the money) and the estate we lived on was a hotbed of bootleg home-brewing....

Amen to mobiles. Still haven't got one and intend to be buried without ever having sent a text. But no internet? That's harsh man, can you imagine life without being the thrill of risking the sack for Googling 'piglips' and 'flangeducts' while your boss has their back turned?

Well done Abbers...

Well done Abbers...

why thank you. I might just pop along and listen to some stories that will widen my eyes - gawd.

I won't go into it, but you really hear some mad shoot there. That's why I'm waiting for a fortunum of short skirted young legal executives to fall amongst my dreams.

Who knows, you could be just the man of theirs.....

Off to bed now. Play nicely and if that pup Joe24 gets cheeky again, just threaten him with the slipper.

Sorry, not into dogging. You will have to talk to Kovu about that.

You only said that to get a reaction.

I don't reckon you go to bed anyway. I reckon you stand in an airing cupboard all night, upon the orders of baggy, in order to dispense your ungodly smell. Double yuck with jam

Best of luck with dealing with this Abitrary.

I get banished to the spare room when the smell gets too bad.....

'Double yuck with jam'? Have you been reading Yenrod's thread then?

I really am going to bed now...

Thank you. My problem is being too educated, and having to hold down a responsible job.

Did you ever see that episode of Holby City where the alcholic surgeon collapsed, and then they had to operate on him, and he gave directions from the bed next to his patient?

You are going nowhere until I'm finished with you, you gay shallow jackass.
